Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

This study is undertaken to compare effectiveness of homoeopathic treatment versus integrated approach of homoeopathy and yoga in the treatment of menstrual disorders in females with Polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Psychological therapies are effective in reducing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptom severity and increasing quality of life and are recommended for the management of IBS by guidelines. Evidence appears strongest for the efficacy of hypnotherapy as psychological treatment. However, therapist-led interventions are time consuming and relatively costly. Approaches based on e-health are cost saving and appear more attractive to patients as no visits to a therapist are necessary. Therefore, the investigators plan to conduct a multicentre randomised controlled trial to examine whether the effectiveness of online hypnotherapy is non-inferior compared to individual face-to-face hypnotherapy delivered by a therapist, according to current FDA guidelines. Online psychoeducation will be used as control condition. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that treatment with online hypnotherapy is a more cost-effective therapy than face-to-face hypnotherapy in IBS patients.

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the feasibility and efficacy of anti-CD19/BCMA bispecific chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) T cell therapy for relapsed and refractory POMES Syndrome.

This study evaluates the efficacy of intensive surveillance, prevention and treatment of intra-abdominal hypertension in ICU patients. In the first two months patients will be screened and undergo usual care. In the following 10-months patients will have more intensive screening and active measures towards prevention and treatment according to best practices.

This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled clinical study. It developed an innovative Tai Chi Cardiac Rehabilitation Program (TCCRP) for patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) and evaluated the efficacy, acceptability and safety of TCCRP on patients with CCS in order to explore the possible mechanism of its feasibility.

The aim of the original study was to compare Incobot/A versus Onabot/A in order to evaluate if the differences in the pharmacologic formulations between the two drugs could affect their efficacy and safety in the treatment of neurogenic overactive bladder (OAB). In the original study protocol two different dosages for either Incobot/A and Onabot/A (200 U and 100 U) were considered, to treat patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity incontinence performing intermittent catheterization (IC) with higher dosages and those able to void spontaneously with lower dosage, with the resulting four treatment groups. For such a study, a very large sample of participants should have been treated and followed up, to have adequate power to demonstrate the hypothesis. At the end of last February 2020, we had to temporarily stop all the clinical activities related to the study and patients' recruitment, due to the occurrence of Sars-Cov-2 pandemic in our Country. At that point, a non-inferiority study seemed to be possible and adequate, and we adapted the protocol accordingly. In addition, on the basis of previously published information, we could hypothesize that the new drug (Incobot/A) would have had at least a roughly similar effect to the control drug (Onabot/A). In order to perform a non-inferiority study, the power and sample size analysis have been re-planned. Thus, we perform a not planned interim analysis to show the preliminary results of an ongoing, non-inferiority trial in which patients' recruitment temporarily stopped due to incontrollable external factors. The present study will be aimed to assess the non-inferiority of Incobot/A compared to Onabot/A on the efficacy and safety parameters, in the treatment of patients with refractory NDOI performing IC, who are randomized to receive 200 U of Incobot/A or Onabot/A intradetrusor injections and who are followed up to 12 wks after treatment

A prospective, randomised, open label study of 3 clinically licensed treatments for ACS to assess the effects of these treatments on blood tests of endogenous fibrinolysis. 50 patients will be randomised to each of the 3 treatment arms in 1:1:1 ratio. Patients will receive the randomised treatment for 1 month after their index admission with ACS.

This study evaluates the efficacy of vaginal CO2 laser therapy in breast cancer survivors with symptoms of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. Half of participants will receive active laser therapy, while the other half placebo therapy.

The prevalence of cardiac arrests is still high worldwide. Despite the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), mortality and morbidity in post cardiac arrest patients is reported high. Comprehensive management is essential in treating patients with post cardiac arrest syndrome. Adequate circulatory stability is achieved with fluid therapy, vasoactive drug therapy, and consideration of mechanical support. Intra-Aortic Ballon Pump (IABP) is one of the most feasible and available mechanical support in developing countries including Indonesia. There are several benefits of IABP reported in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock. Nevertheless, the IABP-SHOCK II study revealed contradictive result which is IABP support was not improving mortality in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock after revascularization. Other study, Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR), also reported no benefits of IABP support in cardiogenic shock patients. But, the study the investigators mentioned earlier is a registry study, attributed to selection bias and several confounding factors resulting mismatch in population. There are no consideration to IABP time of initiation and duration of use in both studies. The Investigator is aiming to prove the early insertion of IABP to a better outcome compared with the absence of early IABP. The objective of the study is to assess mortality in post cardiac arrest syndrome patients with early insertion of IABP support. A total of 102 subjects will be enrolled in this study, divided into IABP and non-IABP group. The primary outcome is in-hopital-mortality, and various indicators in the pathomechanisme of post cardiac arrest syndrome will be measured in 30 minutes and 6 hours after ROSC. Effective lactate clearance, IL-6, Beclin-1, Caspase-3, a-vO2 diff, and ScvO2, cardiac output, VTI, TAPSE and ejection fraction will be measured and analized between the two groups.

Arterial wall inflammation has been consistently suggested to serve a causal role in promoting atherosclerosis and predisposing to hard cardiovascular outcomes. Therefore, there is a global trend in the pharmaceutical industry to develop safe and effective anti-inflammatory agents that could lessen arterial wall inflammation and prevent its detrimental impact on atheroma growth and instability. To this end, autophagy has emerged as a key regulator of inflammation and dysfunctional autophagy machinery has been consistently reported as a contributing factor to atherosclerosis and inflammation. Trehalose, a natural disaccharide sugar found extensively among miscellaneous organisms, by preventing protein denaturation plays various protective roles against stress conditions. Numerous studies indicated trehalose's ability to induce macrophage autophagy-lysosomal biogenesis and reduce inflammation. Also, intravenous (IV) administration of trehalose showed beneficial effects in the reversal of atherosclerosis in atherosclerotic animals. Therefore, in this study, the investigators will explore the potential efficacy of IV trehalose administration on arterial inflammation by employing an positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-labeled fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (18F-FDG) and computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) technique which noninvasively characterizes vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis.
